For Harald Bluetooth you could change the state property to Organized religion, he were to one(Or atleast he claimed to be) to spread Christianity in Denmark.

Also mayby make him Spiritual and organized/expansive.

Why don't you try to fix it yourself? It's not that hard once you roll your sleeves up.

Well here is a start for Polynesia - pardon any inaccuracies - I am very much an amatuer historian who is just develing into the Polynesian culture (I am not a naitve in any way shape or form) and this list is just meant as a starting point. It is as of now mainly an amalgamam of Maori and Hawaiin influences; however the area is rich wiht many other Island cultures so any other candidates are welcome.

Leader : Kamehameha the Great (Hawaii) Kopura-tahi (Mythical King of the forebears of the original Polynesians as preserved by the Takitumu tribe of Maori)

Great Prophets : Te Kooti (Maori Religious leaswer and warrior) Lono (Hawiian God)

Great Artists : Don Ho, (Singer) Paul Gauguin (French Artist who made Tahiti famous)

Great Engineers : Atua Ure Rangi (Easter Island King representative of the building of the Moai - the Great Statues of Easter Island)

Unique Unit : Māori War Canoe

Cities (Note- Using Island groups here instead of cities to reflect the character of this unique culture):
Anuta (in the Solomon Islands)
Cook Islands (self-governing former territory of New Zealand)
Easter Island (part of Chile, called Rapa Nui in Rapa Nui)
Emae (in Vanuatu)

Polynesia is only one part of what you are trying to put together, Oceania would be a more accurate term. However, this is kind of like trying to do a "European" culture civ. You could do a Lapita civ, who where the first people to break out of near Oceania and go into remote Oceania. Lapita was really the colonizing culture of remote Oceania. Also, Kamehameha was a major force in Hawai'ian culture, but in terms of contributions to Oceania as a whole, I think King David Kalākaua of Hawai'i is another good candidate, in 1886 he formed a Polynesian confederation, trying to unite the small nations into a major political force.

I haven't even got CIV IV yet since it hasn't come out for MAC yet. Would love to have some other CIVs to play with when I finally get my hands on it! Keep up the good work!

You'd want to put Ottawa first in there. And the way i see is (my graphic card sucsk too much to play the game), cities are morel ike territories, so the name of the provinces might be more approriate. However it wouldn't surprise me if Canada had already been posted here. If not, it has been posted elsewhere atleast, for that I am sure.

Turkish is not an ethnic civilization, but rather a melting pot of cultures, and we Turks consider all of those to be part of our greater culture and civilization. It does not matter wether if their mother language is Armenian or Greek, as long as they lived together with us, shared the same fate with us, felt the same emotions as us and contributed to us.
